Ex-Christians: How do you lose your fear of hell?
#2
RE: Ex-Christians: How do you lose your fear of hell?
Though I am not an ex-*, I'll throw in my two cents just in case. Fear of hell is an irrational fear just like any other common phobias, so it's very hard to get rid of it through rational justifications. I would really suggest finding some actual local atheist groups near you whom you can visit physically. That kind of community support can help a lot compared to online help.

As for understanding why christianity is false, you can start with genesis and it's infantile premise. Once you realize there is no possibility of original sin in our known reality, the rest of the belief system kind of crumbles away on it's own.
